The ‘mommy track’

I’m not sure exactly what to say about this story that crossed the Associated Press a few minutes ago. Plus, it’s a minefield. The story? Women being laid off are getting to know their kids better.

Lucas and other laid-off women like her are involuntarily experiencing the life of a stay-at-home mom, and they are getting to know a lot more about the details of their children’s daily existence. They are also discovering some of the things they have

been missing.

Couldn’t the same be said of men getting laid off?
